Gold Certificates

Gold certificates are another form of paper gold. These certificates represent ownership of a certain amount of gold bullion or coins without the need to physically hold the metal. These are issued by banks and can be traded like any other scrip.

Gold Futures and Options

For more experienced investors, gold futures and options can offer significant returns. These derivatives allow investors to speculate on the future price of gold. However, they are more complex and carry higher risks than other gold investment options.
